Bollinger's Next Job
in response to reader comment: Bollinger's "tenure" need be rescinded.

Lee Bollinger is a coward; he attempted to mitigate the public's impression of his decision to invite the enemy to be heard-when we are indeed at war... Ahmadinejad--figure head though he may be--represents those radical Islamists, who espouse and actually supply the WMD to kill Americans. He desires that America be annihilated, with our ideas of freedom and democracy. And, he, and his henchmen continue to eliminate us, not unlike they murder young men in Iran--for being homosexual--completely amoral.

Your obviously very out of touch with reality.

Iran hasn't supplied WMD to people who are killing americans, nor have any WMD actualy been used agianst us in Iraq. America, on the other hand, gave Iraq weapons of mass destruction in the form of chemical weapons, which Iraq used to kill thousand of Iranians.

You also accuse Iran of wanting to destroy our freedoms and Democracy. The US, on the other hand, actualy did that to Iran. We overthrew the popular Democratic leader of Iran, replacing him with a brutal dictator who killed thousands in cold blood.

How hypocritical that you claim that iran is insane for its expressions and actions, yet pay no attention to the calls of suposively righteous people in America calling for nuclear genecide, war, and other actions that will result in tens of thousands of deaths, including civilians.

IF Iran is a monster, what the hell does that make us?
